I'm sending this because Ithink it needs to be looked at.  It is going
to affect a lot of people.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hello


I'm using Manjaro with openrc, which is a slightly off distro.  I've been
using Fireofox on winmaker for almost 2 years now on this platform.  I
did an upgrade and suddenly firefox is in complete disarray.  It did
update firefox and said it needed to replace package firefox-gtk with
firefox

When it starts up it gets a bunch of these things

 (firefox:3778): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: window-
controls.css:172:13: The 'icon-shadow' property has been renamed to '-gtk-
icon-shadow'

(firefox:3778): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: tabs.css:116:15: The
'icon-shadow' property has been renamed to '-gtk-icon-shadow'

(firefox:3778): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: tabs.css:127:15: The
'icon-shadow' property has been renamed to '-gtk-icon-shadow'

(firefox:3778): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: tabs-darker-
overrides.css:10:13: The 'icon-shadow' property has been renamed to '-gtk-
icon-shadow'

(firefox:3778): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: tabs-darker-
overrides.css:37:13: The 'icon-shadow' property has been renamed to '-gtk-
icon-shadow'

(firefox:3778): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: tabs-darker-
overrides.css:47:13: The 'icon-shadow' property has been renamed to
'-gtk-icon-shadow'

The tool bar is now black fonts on black background.  Same this with all
the drop down menus. Select and cut and paste is not displaying and the
scroll bar is also invisible.

I've tried deleting ./mozilla/firefox
no change other than losing my bookmarks and addons

I see nothing in about:config that I can use to change the settings.  In
all these years I have NEVER seen anything from Mozilla act like this.  I
removed the firefox package and tried the binary from the mozilla website
- no change.

Folks at manjaro thing we are looking at a gtk theme problem (REALLY NO
SANE DEFAULTS) - and I think I agree but I don't use gtk-themes on
winmaker.

I'm exasperated...  and I need to get work done.  Please help.
